Through the fog

Oh-oh-oh... Through the fog, the yellow crowns appeared At Chisye Prudi, a sacred dream lived The evening settled in the quiet backstreet The courtyard's lanterns lit their warm light, autumn dyed the quiet leaves with crimson red, and a distant tram bell rang - the way lay ahead The cup, the wind, the sword, the flames, the pen, and the scroll – I kept the balance between truth and music at Chisty Prud on the evening's hush, the twilight's chill held hidden warmth, I trusted I rode the heavens' wave as a creator, while in these quiet alleys, hearts beat stronger together Did you recall the night we met by gray waters, when madness flared amidst the winter's coldness and thunder? He loved her without a doubt at first sight, one word was enough for her never to leave They were like John and Yoko – a whispered joke between friends, two wild souls entwined in the world, starting to finish When he came home late, she'd warm the tea, chase away the chills in silence It was not fame or applause, no pedestals were in sight, just knowing someone was waiting, holding back the night Come on, don't wait for magic, make it with your two hands Energy cuts through the air, reaching for land, omens in the air, power in the grip, intent, flame keeps burning, don't slip, hold the sky with one hand, earth with the other, hey, creator, wake up, this moment, light through rain, wind, years, time, I've returned to Chisty prud, this place is mine A voice from the past rides the accordion, sighing, echoing thoughts, one beneath the open skies, word power forged, steel, whoever dared to believe could shape the course, feel these courtyard hold memories, every step makes lanterns whisper, words we say, Igor sang, autumn fall, I'll sing, dawn's new light, unextinguishable flames burn each night, ah, ah, winds sing, gray waters' edge, time flows, river endless, pledge, we write, story, fate sets motion, cradle, worlds open, devotion, Chisty prudy, courtyard, lantern glow, once more, I've come, where I belong, we remember, sing on
